Yantra

Yantra is a type geometrical diagram or object, used Tantra (tantric worship). They are made of various metals (e.g., copper, silver, gold, astadhatu - an alloy of 8 different metals - etc.) or dried leaves of a special plant (bhoja patra). -origin is from Sanskrit, literally 'device for holding or fastening'. In tantric method of spiritualism (tantric sadhana) an "Yantra" often represents the body of the deity related to that sadhana.

e.g., Shunya yantra, Bhubaneswari yantra, Bagalamukhi yantra

It also literally means - A Machine.€€€

Bismuth is a chemical element in the periodic table that has the symbol Bi and atomic number 83. This heavy, brittle, white crystalline trivalent poor metal has a pink tinge and chemically resembles arsenic and antimony. Of all the metals, it is the most naturally diamagnetic, and only mercury has less thermal conductivity. Lead-free bismuth compounds are used in cosmetics and in medical procedures. Bismuth - Notable characteristics. It is a brittle metal with a pinkish hue with an iridescent tarnish ...

Alloy steels were known from antiquity, being nickel-rich iron from meteorites hot-worked into useful products. In a modern sense, alloy steels have been made since the invention of furnaces capable of melting iron, into which other metals could be thrown and mixed. Carbon steel Damascus steel, which was famous in ancient times for its durability and ability to hold an edge, was created from a number of different materials (some only in traces), essentially a complicated alloy with iron as main component. Stain ...

Like nearly all materials, metal is less dense as a liquid than a solid, and so a casting shrinks as it cools -- mostly as it solidifies, but also as the temperature of the solid material drops. The shrinkage caused by solidification can leave cavities in a casting, weakening it. Risers provide additional material to the casting as it solidifies. Risers add cost because some of their material must be machined off as waste, but they are often necessary to produce usable parts. Shrinkage after solidification can be dealt with by using an oversized pat ...

Wootz, classic damascus, is a steel alloy having a pattern of bands or sheets of micro carbides within a tempered martensite or pearlite matrix. It was developed in India around 300 AD (although some say as early as 200 BC). The word wootz may have been a mistranscription of wook, an anglicised version of ukku, the word for steel in many south Indian languages. Wootz can be made as a kind of crucible steel. Classically wootz was produced by placing a mixture of wrought iron or iron ore and charcoal in a cru ...

Bronze is the most popular metal for cast metal sculptures; a cast-metal sculpture of bronze is often called a bronze. Common bronze alloys often have the unusual and very desirable property of expanding slightly just before they set, thus filling the finest details of a mold. The manufacture of bronzes is highly skilled work, and a number of distinct casting processes may be employed, including lost-wax casting (and its modern-day spin-off ceramic shell casting), sandcasting and centrifugal casting. In the lost-wax casting met ...

Antimony was recognized in antiquity (3000 BC or earlier) in various compounds, and it was prized for its fine casting qualities. It was first reported scientifically by Tholden in 1450, and was known to be a metal by the beginning of the 17th century. The origin of the name "antimony" is not clear; the term may come from the Greek words "anti" and "monos", which approximately means "opposed to solitude" as it was thought never to exist in its pure form, or from the Pharaonic (Ancient egypt) expression "Antos Ammon", which could be translated as "bloom of the god Ammon". The alchemi ...

Many sports car purists were more interested in the Corvair (particularly the 1965 and later cars) than in more conventional designs, such as the Ford Mustang, despite the latter's power advantage. From the first appearance of the Corvair, a large selection of high-performance equipment and modifications became available for it. Chevrolet Corvair - Yenko Stinger. Don Yenko, who had been racing Corvettes, could not compete successfully against the Carroll Shelby Mustangs after they arrived on the scene; he ...

The British currency was decimalised on February 15, 1971. The basic unit of currency – the pound (or pound sterling) – was unaffected. Before decimalisation there were 240 (old) pennies in a pound, now there are 100 (new) pence. The new coins were marked with the wording NEW PENNY (singular) or NEW PENCE (plural) to distinguish them from the old. The word "new" was dropped after ten years. The symbol p was also adopted to distinguish the new pe ...

The first Land Rover was designed in 1947, in Wales in the United Kingdom, by Maurice Wilks, the chief designer at the British car company Rover, as a farm vehicle that could be used for everything from ploughing fields to driving in town. It is said that he was inspired by an American World War II Jeep that he used on his estate. The first Land Rover prototype 'centre steer' was built on a Jeep chassis. A distinctive feature has been their bodies, constructed of a lightweight rustproof proprietary alloy of aluminium and magnesium called Bir ...

The most important feature of Zeppelin's design is a slim, rigid aluminium alloy skeleton, made of rings and longitudinal girders. The advantage of this concept is that the ships can be built much larger, which enables them to lift heavier loads and be equipped with more numerous and powerful engines. This makes the craft quite distinct from non-rigid airships commonly known as blimps, which rely on a slight o ...

Due to its large surface area and high volume of contained hydrogen gas, dry, activated Raney nickel is a pyrophoric material that should be handled under an inert atmosphere. Raney nickel is typically supplied as a 50% slurry in water. Care should be taken never to expose Raney nickel to air. Even after reaction, Raney nickel contains significant amounts of hydrogen gas, and will ignite when exposed to air. Raney nickel will produce hazardous fumes when burning, and therefore the use of a gas mask is recommended when extinguishing fi ...

Although the term "crystallite" is more precise, the boundary between two crystallites is traditionally known as a grain boundary. The term "crystallite boundary" is rarely used, and the fact that powder grains are not attached to one another and so do not form boundaries helps to remove ambiguity in this case. Grain boundaries disrupt the motion of dislocations through a material; reducing crystallite size is therefore a common way to improve strength, often without any sacrifice in toughness. The high interfacial energy and r ...

Sheffield has an international reputation for metallurgy and steel-making.[20] Many innovations in these fields have been made in Sheffield. Benjamin Huntsman discovered the crucible technique in the 1740s. This process was made obsolete in 1856 by Henry Bessemer's invention of the Bessemer converter. Thomas Boulsover invented Sheffield Plate (silver-plated copper) in the early 18th century. Stainless steel was invented by Harry Brearley in 1912, ...

Victor was born to Werner von Doom, a noted Roma healer, and Cynthia von Doom, who was said to be a witch. His mother was killed when Victor was an infant. She had attempted to gain power to protect her gypsy tribe from persecution by the reigning authorities of Latveria. Unfortunately, she bargained with the demon Mephisto for power (in the Earth X comic, it was stated that her bargain was that, in exchange for her soul, Mephisto would ensure that her son became notable, however Earth X is an alternate reality and therefore no ...

In 1821, an Estonian physicist named Thomas Johann Seebeck discovered that when any conductor (such as a metal) is subjected to a thermal gradient, it will generate a small voltage. Thermocouples make use of this so-called Peltier-Seebeck effect. Thermocouples produce an output voltage which depends on the temperature difference between the junctions of two dissimilar metal wires. It is important to appreciate that thermocouples measure the temperature differ ...

If a graph of the mass or mole yield of fission products against the atomic mass of the fragments is drawn then it has two peaks, one in the area strontium through to palladium and one at iodine through to neodymium. This is due to the fact that the fission event causes the nucleus to split in an asymmetric manner.[1] Yield vs. Z - This is a typical distribution for the fission of uranium. Please note in the calculations used to make this graph the activation of fission products was ignored and the fission was assumed to occur in a single moment rather than a length of time. In this bar chart results are ...
